Samsung Z won’t be launched

The Korean company has scrapped its plans for the launch of the first Tizen smartphone, Samsung Z, and will rather turn its attention to lower end Tizen devices, as well as other non-mobile products like smart watches, smart TV and home appliances.

Sammy will now put its resources into bringing the entry-level Tizen phones marked as SM-Z130H and SM-130E to the world’s emerging markets.

The Korean company will held two Tizen conferences by the end of this year to spur developer interest. First comes the Tizen Developer Summit Shanghai in October, followed by the Samsung Developers Conference in November, though here we also expect to see other, Android apps on display.
